del.icio.us Ajax

So, my first bit of toe dipping into Ajax is right there on the left, the “Want to see the tags instead?” link. It shows my del.icio.us tags, as produced by an XSL transformation. It’s not very complicated JavaScript, I’m just using xmlhttp.responseText to dump out an HTML fragment created in the XSLT. Not very interesting, but it makes me happy. Also not very well finished off as I have to go get some food, so I’m sorry about the mess. Any pointers or advice anyone has are gladly recieved.
Things it should do:

1. should have a switch back to the original state
2. the css needs to take advantage of the weighting classes (each tag is assigned a class dependant on it’s frequency)
3. it would be cool if I could actually do some inline editing of my del.icio.us tags from here
4. sort alphabeticaly, sort by frequency, sort by date (tags and links)

• 300†
  Does exactly what it says on the (comic book) tin. Loved it.
• Little Miss Sunshine†
  Very funny, disturbing (the beauty pageant) and completely messed up -- but in a good way.
• Laputa: Castle in the Sky†
  Story great, characterization a little on the weak side -- though the big robots are cool.
• Porco Rosso†
  Stylish, funny, exciting.
• Grave of the Fireflies†
  Very sad, which was a little unexpected since I didn't know much about it before watching it. Can be a little too slow in places though, otherwise it's very good.
• Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind†
  The story can get a little dense at times what with the various factions, but still really enjoyable, inventive and engaging.
• X-Men: The Last Stand†
  Opportunity, talent, money - all blown. Over 3 films X-Men has hinted of something great that could have been, this last one says "No, sorry - not going to happen". Bah.
